Addon for firms

Project billing — time per client, invoice PDF in one click

A spreadsheet with 60 clients × 8 staff × 3 rates is chaos. TimeHunter keeps time, rates and work notes in one place, and you download the invoice summary as a PDF.

What is project billing in TimeHunter?

Project billing is a TimeHunter addon that records working time per client. During the workday the employee starts a “client work” timer, picks the client and one of its rates, and the system calculates hours × rate. Managers see live who is working on what and how much is ready to invoice.

For accounting firms, law firms and agencies this means the end of a multi-hundred-row spreadsheet where every month you manually check how many hours Anna in operations spent on client A, B and C. The employee taps start, picks the client and rate, and adds a note on what they are doing (e.g. report, audit, advisory).

How it works step by step

1

Add your clients

Manually or via CSV import. Each client: name, category, currency, up to 3 hourly rates and 2 markups.

2

Employee picks the client during work

Mobile app or web: after clocking in, client → rate → start. Switching client in one tap closes the previous entry.

3

Download the invoice PDF

End of month: billing dashboard → client → PDF with hours × rate. Invoice attachment ready.

Who is this addon for?

Accounting firms

Billing clients hourly or on a fixed fee? Each accountant’s time per client, split by rate.

Law firms

Lawyer time per client at e.g. a partner, associate or junior rate (you name the rates yourself).

Marketing & creative agencies

Designer, copywriter and PM time per client. A monthly PDF summary for each client.

Software houses & IT

Pricing

You add the “Project billing” addon to your TimeHunter plan and switch it on yourself in the admin panel, with no new contract. The price and billing model (per employee or a flat monthly fee per company) are listed in the Pricing section. New accounts get a 14-day trial.

Clients on a monthly fixed fee: the fee, recurring surcharges and one-off items, with working time listed without hourly amounts.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add a custom hourly rate for a specific entry?
Yes. Each client has up to 3 standard rates (e.g. junior/senior/partner), but when starting the timer you can enter a custom rate with a service description — useful for special engagements.
What is in the invoice PDF header?
Your company details (name, address, tax ID), the client name and the billing period. Then a table of hours by day, employee and rate, the list of entries with notes and the total to invoice. A4 landscape.
Can I import clients from an existing CRM/Excel?
Yes. Prepare a CSV file (name, category, rates, currency) and upload it — you map the columns and see a preview of the first rows before importing. You can also add clients manually.
Does it handle clients on a monthly fixed fee?
Yes. Set the client to monthly billing. Working time is still recorded, and the PDF shows the fee, recurring surcharges and one-off items with quantity and unit price.
What if an employee forgets to stop the timer?
An admin or manager corrects the entry times (end after start, max 24 h, not in the future), and every correction is written to the audit log. Timers left running from previous days are closed automatically. Employees can edit the note on their own entries.
Can I use multiple currencies (PLN, CZK, EUR)?
Yes. Each client has its own currency, and the invoice PDF is generated in that currency. You can have one client in EUR (a German company) and another in PLN (domestic) — no manual conversion.
